Sophia Emotional Numbness Protocol
Emotional numbness is often a protective response — the psyche's way of managing overload. It's not permanent, but it can be confusing. Sometimes the most useful thing is to write without expecting feeling to arrive — just observe what's there, however flat it seems. Private and offline.
